New Haven - It All Happens Here

From diners and bistros to gourmet cafes and award-winning restaurants, New Haven is a city that knows how to eat.  In Downtown New Haven, acclaimed chefs deliver culinary delights as eclectic and exhilarating as the historical city itself.  From November 9 to November 14, 2008, New Haven invites you to sample a taste of the city’s culinary renaissance during its first-ever NEW HAVEN RESTAURANT WEEK.
 

NEW HAVEN RESTAURANT WEEK is a great value to visitors and residents alike who can savor some of the most innovative cuisine in New England for a fraction of the cost.  The weeklong epicurean celebration will feature 18 of New Haven’s finest restaurants, serving up mouthwatering prix fixe menus for lunch ($16.38 - the year New Haven was founded) and dinner ($29). So, whether you are trying a new restaurant or visiting an old favorite, mark your calendars. With Downtown New Haven’s famed cuisine even more accessible than ever before, this event is not to be missed.
 

Before you go, here are a few tips to help enhance your NEW HAVEN RESTAURANT WEEK experience:

1. Make reservations for NEW HAVEN RESTAURANT WEEK as early as possible.  This popular event is sure to book fast.
   
   
2. Please DO NOT make reservations at more than one restaurant for the same meal period, as it blocks others from securing a reservation.
   
   
3. If you need to cancel your reservation, please do so with as much notice as possible so restaurants have the opportunity to rebook the table.
   
   
4. Tax and gratuity are not included in the prix fixe price. Please be sure to show your appreciation for good service by tipping generously...it’s good karma.
